‘Springsteen & I’ opens July 22.

Yes, it’s very cool that there’s going to be a documentary celebrating Springsteen’s dedicated fan community (“Springsteen & I,” coming July 22, natch — see the trailer at the bottom of this post). But perhaps even cooler is the movie’s poster, featuring actual shots of fans holding their first and favorite Springsteen albums. The best part is — it’s interactive! (Well, online it is — sit there poking at the paper version and you’ll just end up looking silly.)

You can check out the interactive poster here; you can search by the name of the fan, or just click on random shots to see their picture and info. Meanwhile, the producers were nice enough to share with us some of the original submissions, and we’ve assembled our favorites into a photo gallery you can review below. (Is your picture here? Let us know in the comments.)

Europeans have been scooping up tickets since Friday, but here in the U.S. we’ll have to wait until this Friday, June 14 for screening info. Stay tuned!

UPDATE: The producers also will be introducing fans whose testimony made it into the film via bios on the movie’s Facebook page.
